The Role of Gonadal Hormones on Opioid Receptor Protein Density in Arthritic Rats
… in arthritic and non-arthritic animals. Male gonadectomy did not dramatically impact opioid receptor protein levels, whereas female gonadectomy resulted in significant increases in opioid receptor protein levels. Furthermore, it was determined that MOR protein levels were greatest in male …

Examining Sex Differences of Adipose Endothelial Cells and the Effects of Foxo1 Deletion
… ECs. To assess the influence of sex hormones, a gonadectomy model was used. Surprisingly, the loss of gonadal hormones increased capillary density despite reduced levels of VEGFA in the adipose microenvironment. However, gonadectomy had no long-term effect on EC metabolism in culture, though …

Role of testosterone in mediating prenatel ethanol effects on hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal activity in male rats
… The first study compared the effects of gonadectomy (GDX) on HPA and HPG activity in adult male offspring from prenatal E, pair-fed (PF) and ad libitum-fed control (C) dams. There were no differences among groups in basal testosterone levels under intact conditions. However, E males …

Effects of photoperiod on weight maintenance in adult neutered male cats
… decrease in physical activity level noted after gonadectomy, neutered animals are targets for activity-related weight management strategies. Photoperiod is known to cause physiological changes in seasonal mammals, including changes in body weight (BW) and reproductive status. Thus, our objective …
